Some big things to watch for in 2020

I do not see any reason why I should watch Telegram or Libra. These are not cryptocurrencies but maybe another financial tools that do not have a great chance of success. Rather watch true cryptocurrencies - Ethereum 2.0 update and Cardano Mainnet this year.

In 2020, Covid certainly brought a lot of new eyes to Bitcoin as people looked to Bitcoin specifically as a (short term) investment in the hope that they can make up for the shortfall in their income this year. Some will stay, and some will leave disillusioned.

From a development perspective I think there will be a lot of new blood entering the space this year as a lot of talented young programmers will opt out of a year of online university and start working on blockchain projects that interest them.

Seems that for the first half of the year nothing too substantial happened. The halving didn´t had much impact, the Ethereum update got postponed, and everything else is slowed down because of Covid. Sure there were updates, like with Theta and Google, just today the interoperability ICON release (my favorite topic, sry), or Charlie Lee and Litecoin still not dead! The onyl good thing about our current situation is that more and more people get interested in cryptos and the fact that the OTC market is growing is also a good sign. I just hope the second half of 2020 gets less turbulent
